5.5.3 Threshold Setup
The user can select from 10 different Threshold settings that have been preset. The Threshold values are set up
using the PC software and cannot be entered from the meter. A threshold name can also be assigned using the PC
software. The PC software can be obtained from the ComSonics website,
, under the resources
download section.
In the Threshold menu view, the top line indicates system information (date & time) and the bottom line indicates
the threshold information including threshold number and name.
Press “Up” (MODE) and “Down” (dBm/dB) to
toggle through the preset group of the thresholds
and press “REF/SEL” to select the desired Threshold settings.
After completing this operation, all P/F mode test results will be based on this threshold value.
An example of the PC software that allows the user to set the Threshold values is shown below:
